NBC’s comedy institution, “Saturday Night Live”, is crossing the pond to launch a British edition! The iconic late-night sketch show will debut “Saturday Night Live U.K.” in 2026, bringing its signature mix of political satire, celebrity impersonations and musical performances to British and Irish audiences. The U.K. version will have a British cast of comedians (to be announced later) and follow the same format with famous guest hosts and star musical acts. “SNL” creator Lorne Michaels will be the executive producer of “Saturday Night Live UK,” while staying in the same role with the show on NBC in New York.
‘SNL’ will be receiving a British remake in 2026.
